Photograph by Nancy Leigh , National Geographic Your Shot
"The setting was very eerie, writes Your Shot member Nancy Leigh. In the darkness [of] an overcast early morning, there was a large gathering of black juvenile iguanas on the rocks of Punta Espinoza on Fernandina Island in the Gal pagos. While completely surrounded by iguanas, Leigh spotted a bright-red Sally Lightfoot crab climbing onto one of the lizards. It was a delicate balance ... acting fast to capture the moment while respecting their space and not disturbing either animal," she says.
Leigh s image was recently featured in Your Shot s Daily Dozen .
